    'Anthony johnson' isn't a big enough name for a US fight..

    You've told us all that he's not well known in the US so why would we have the fight there? Hows it gonna be a money maker?No-one knows his name apparently so we are left with two options, option a) build US profile by fighting miller etc there to build interest, or option b) fight in a country in front of 90k where he is very popular and where wilder is also known a bit.whats the point in fighting in a country where noones heard of 'Johnson'? From what people are telling me it surely won't be much bigger than wilders past few fights?

        The fight will be next and it will be in the UK, rightly so. AJ will win by brutal stoppage before round 5.

          Joshua definetly carries a name BUT not the numbers they want.


          The fight needs to happen in the U.K first.

          If the fight doesn't happen next .....

          Wilder needs to fight in Vegas regardless of the opponent but his management is incompetent so thats not going to happen !


          The fight in the U.S will be bigger in 2019 , if they fight before that in the U.K it then gives it a blue print to work with and it becomes a spectacle ......

          Of course the first fight has to go a few rnds so thats another thing altogether bc casual fans will look at it as a mismatch should either get k.o'd in 4 rnds ....but its that type of fight .

              Well he had two title fights against Daniel Cormier on PPV and was a very entertaining fighter:

                Yeah I know what his name is mate. People been calling him Johnson as a way of pretending he's not known, which is why I did the thread
